Food? In an Irish pub? It's called Guinness! Drink and eat at the
same time! After several (hic) pints wander round the town and see
how many pubs (cum undetakers/village shop) you can find. Whatever
you do, DON'T attempt a pub crawl. Even the smallest town can have
more than a dozen!

Seriously, my experience of Irish pub food was not good but it could
be due to the fact that we went out of season, one Easter weekend. We
felt like W C Fields - We went to Ireland (Kerry) but it was closed!
